An incident at Jannatul Al-Baqie

A Wahhabi Sheikh in Jannatul Baqie said to Ayatollah Qar'ati: 
"What do you proclaim to your Imams who are dead?"
Then the Wahhabi threw his pen on the floor.
Then called,
"O Zain El Abidine Give me the pen... No one answered him. 
Then called: O Muhammad Baqir Give me the pen... did not hear an answer.
Then called: O Fatima O Imam Sadiq give me the pen..no one answered him."
Then he turned to Ayatullah Qar'ati and said to him: Did you see how that they do not respond? They are dead.
Then Ayatollah Qar'ati looked at him and threw his pen on the floor and said: "O my God give me the pen ..did not hear an answer."
Ayatollah turned to Wahhabi and said: "According to your logic which is corrupt, God is dead because he did not give me the pen and this does not mean he is server for you."

Today, the martyrdom of Imam Mohammad Baqir (a.s.)

Today, the 7th of Zilhajj, the day of shahadat of our 5th Imam, hadhrat Imam Mohammad Baqir (a.s.). He was born in 57th year of hijrat in Madinah on the 1st of Rajab. He spent 4 years of his life in presence of Imam Husain (a.s.). His Imamat period was during the khilafat tenure of 4 Bani Ummayah Caliphs, Waleed ibne Abdul Malik, Suleman ibne Abdul Malik, Umar ibne Abdul Aziz and Yazid ibne Abdul Malik. He was poisoned by the caliph Hisham ibne Abdul Malik in year 114th of hijrat.
We give condolence to the Imam of the time, Hadhrat Imam Mahdi (a.s.) on the martyrdom of his fore-father, Imam Baqir (a.s.).

Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (a.s.) once said to one of his companions:
"O Jabir it is not enough that a person says; I am a Shiah and I love the Prophet (SAW) and the Prophet's family and the Imams. By Allah, a Shiah is the one who is perfectly pious and obedient to Allah's commands. Anyone else is not a Shiah no matter how much they say they love Hazrat Ali (AS) and no matter what they call themselves.
O Jabir Our Shiahs are known by these signs:
(a) They are truthful, trustworthy and loyal;
(b) They always remember Allah;
(c) They offer their prayers, observe fasts, and recite Qur'an;
(d) They help their neighbors, take care of orphans, and say nothing but good of people;
(e) They act nicely towards their parents;
(f) They are worthy of peoples trust and confidence.
